This season of 'Koffee With Karan' came with its own set of controversies, fodder for gossip and some fresh scoop on some of our favourite stars who made it to the couch and spilt some beans during the rapid-fire rounds of the show.
However, the season is now all set to draw the curtains with a grand finale, which will have Kareena Kapoor and Priyanka Chopra brewing some insanely hot coffee for us.

One of the teasers show us the chemistry between the two hotties, where they speak about how both of them were proposed in Greece by their respective partners and another one shows a sassy PC talking about how she can beat any millennial in the art of how fast can she 'move on' in life.

This is going to be a great finale with some major scoop awaiting us in this episode. The two actresses haven't always been so pally in the past when Bebo commented on PC's accent and PC answered back in her unique style when she graced the couch in one of the previous seasons.
The two have worked together in 'Aitraaz' in 2004 and have never really shared the screen after that.

Will someone sign them up together for a movie after this episode airs? We sure hope so!

The 'Super Bowl' is a widely watched event worldwide and hence always brings a bag of goodies in the form of some big shot trailers and teasers dropping our way.
Here are the top 5 movies trailers that left us all excited:
1. Avengers: Endgame- Tony Stark is coming back and everyone is gearing up to take on Thanos. How do we keep calm now? April is way too far!
2. Captain Marvel- This one is going to be special with Brie Larson, as the insanely powerful Captain Marvel, getting stuck and fighting it out between two alien races.
3. Toy Story 4- This one is packed with a lot of action and nostalgia because Bo Peep is coming back after more than 20 years after making a debut back in 1999. The movie will hit theatres in June.
4. Fast And Furious Presents: Hobbs And Shaw- This is going to be the 'Fast And Furious' spin-off that we deserve and stars Dwayne Johnson and Jason Statham who will begrudgingly join hands to fight the terror known as Brixton.
5. The Handmaid's Tale ( Season 3)- If you're a fan of this mega-popular series, then we know that you're on pins and needles waiting for the release of this one. After the last season left fans on a cliffhanger, this one promises more drama.
So, which one are you the most excited for? Let us know in the comment section.

January saw a plethora of Bollywood releases which fans have savoured over the weekends.
With 'Uri', 'Manikarnika' and 'Thackeray' making some big moolah at the box office, the next month is also lined up with some exciting movies that are going to release:
1. Ek Ladki Ko Dekha Toh Aisa Laga
The first Friday of the month will witness Rajkummar Rao, Sonam Kapoor and Anil Kapoor at the box office with a unique love story about acceptance and love for the LGBTQ community. The trailer has already impressed everyone and the audience wants to welcome this movie with open arms.
2. Gully Boy
Probably one of the most anticipated releases of not just this month but this year as well. Zoya Akhtar, Ranveer Singh and Alia Bhatt's combined genius will create some major magic on the big screen. Also, the music is already a hit and since it's the only big budget Valentine release, plan your date around it maybe?
3. Total Dhamaal
This franchise needs no introduction and the madness with this one only gets bigger because the star cast includes names like Madhuri Dixit, Anil Kapoor and Ajay Devgn. The family entertainment releases on the 22nd so make sure you get your entire clan to watch this.
4. The Fakir Of Venice
Farhan Akhtar is coming back on the big screen with this movie which has been waiting to be released for over a decade. The movie follows an Indian con man who is hired to find a man who can sit as an art installation in Venice.
5. Amavas
This horror action flick is directed by Bhushan Patel and stars the gorgeous Nargis Fakhri and Sachin Joshi in it, so if you're in the mood for horror, then this is your pick.
Hope we've helped sort your Friday plans.

In case you didn't know, the Golden Globes awards happened this morning. But who cares about anyone winning anything when 'Game of Thrones' fans ended up winning the entire thing. HBO released a 5-second video each of all the upcoming shows they have, and obviously GOT season 8 was a part of it.
Just 5 seconds of Sansa Stark, Daenerys Targaryen, and Jon Snow at Winterfell was all it took for the fans, who have been desperately waiting for the new season since the last one ended, to get even more excited for April and for the release of season 8.

The tiny sneak peek shows a pissed off Sansa Stark giving Dany major side-eye while saying “Winterfell is yours, Your Grace.” Honestly, I'm not even exaggerating when I say everyone is overwhelmed over this bare minimum footage that HBO has so graciously given to the fans.

Rohit Shetty is back with his next movie 'Simmba' and it stars Ranveer Singh and Sara Ali Khan in the lead roles.
Here are 5 things we are really looking forward to see in this movie:
1. Sara Ali Khan's Acting- This star kid is making us forget that nepotism had a hand to play in her career, because we absolutely love the freshness and the antics that she is bringing along with her on the screen. '
She already impressed the audience in 'Kedarnath' and her media appearances are hilariously natural and funny, which is why we are looking forward to see what she brings in 'Simmba'.

2. Ranveer Singh's Madness- This man is synonymous with perfection, and the buffet of roles he has been offering us is already more posh than what a 5 star hotel would probably offer.
From Bajirao, to Khilji and now a mad cop in 'Simmba', Ranveer always makes us ask for more! It will be exciting to see how he fills the shoes of a Rohit Shetty hero, which were worn by Ajay Devgn for so long.

3. Ajay Devgn's Cameo- The trailer begins with Ajay Devgn's ' Singham' character making an entry and that means he is going to make a cameo which will be fun.

5. 'Simmba's' Foot Tapping Music- Okay, the two songs topping the charts at the moment are rehashed but then, you've got to admit that they are fun.
Rohit's movies are known to own it in the music department and looks like this one is heading the same way, so let's see how the cinematography fares out.

Let's see what the awesome looking movie has in store for us tomorrow! How do you think it will fare? Let us know in the comments section.

Diljit Dosanjh, as the hypebeast that he has transformed into, never fails to amaze us sartorially. While he usually does it with his shows, appearances and Instagram posts, he has now decided to go beyond that and give a desi twist to that. That explains the grand aesthetic of his look in his latest album 'Roar', the first song of which, 'Gulabi Pagg', just released.

The super colourful outfit, composed of patchwork, and replete with the pleared golden turban, is everything a lively album with a name like 'Roar' should possess. What we love about the shirt is the amalgamation of eclectic elements like the 'Baroque' pattern as well as a leopard.
The album songs will also feature some statement outfits, like a waistcoat with lion heads on it. Take a look.

All the best, Diljit!

Before we delve into this, first, I need to get something out of the way.
NAAAAAAAAAAAAAINSGONYAMABAGITHIBABA.
Okay. I had to do that. Anyone who has watched the nineties classic 'The Lion King' knows that this powerful opening Zulu chant, with the rising sun in the backdrop, calling out to all the animals in Pride Lands, is nothing short of perfection. I still get goosebumps. At one point, it even was my alarm back in college!
I still remember the first time I saw the movie. I was 6 and I had gone to spend the holidays at my aunt's place in Bangalore. I was particularly out of control that day and my aunt, who was on the verge on losing her mind, plonked me down in front of the TV and popped a videotape into the VCR, asking me to quietly watch the 'cartoon'.
The 'word' cartoon was enough for me to shut up and fix my complete attention on the giant Onida TV. I will never forget how my heart started beating faster when the Zulu chant began and I saw all the animals wake from their slumber and make their way to Pride Rock to meet their future king.
I was only 6 and this was my first Disney movie, so obviously I was not ready for the avalanche of emotions that this movie engulfed me in. I still remember how Mufasa's death destroyed me and how the tears wouldn't stop, as I watched little Simba desperately try to wake his dad up by tugging his ear…
okay, I need a moment…sorry…I can't….
If you are with me so far, you know how much this movie means to us nineties kids. It opened us up to the world of Disney and introduced us to the magic of animation.
“When I was a child, I wouldn't eat unless my parents played Lion King. Seeing the new trailer filled me with childhood nostalgia,” said my 25-year-old junior from college, Jacinth Miriyam.
Which is why it goes without saying that the people most excited for the live-action remake of the classic movies, even more so than kids, are adults, and here's why:
1. A Throwback To Our Golden Childhood
So, when the trailer dropped today and I heard James Earl Jones' magnificent, sonorous Mufasa voice saying “Everything the light touches, is our kingdom”…it was like someone had pressed a button in my brain and I was 6 all over again.
This movie signifies a time gone by, a time of innocence, a time when childhood meant watching animated movies with our mouths hanging open, marvelling at a whole another world.
“For me, The Lion King instantly represents my childhood. It was my favourite movie ever at that time. It made me laugh, cry and feel anger at the same time. I think this movie teaches resilience in all of its purity, and that's what makes it immortal and so loved”, my friend Chiara Lana from Italy told me when I asked her what she felt about watching it again.
2. Watching It On The Big Screen After Almost 20 Years
I am not among the lucky ones who got to see this movie on the big screen (my first movie in a theatre was 'Hum Aapke Hain Koun'!).
So, watching it in a live-action format on a giant screen will not only make this special, but in a way, I will be able to make up to my little self who missed this marvel on a big screen.
“Watching movies in halls was still a novel concept back in the day, at least for my family. So now that I get to see it again, even though in a different format, somehow I feel like I have honoured my childhood by catching up on what I missed out all those years ago.”- James Matthew, my 28-year-old buddy from school.
3. A Need To Remember All The Emotions We Felt When We Saw It The First Time
I was only 6, so obviously I was not prepared for so many things. The hurt I felt at Scar's betrayal, the devastation at Mufasa's death, the joy at Simba re-uniting with Nala and his mother, the horror at watching Simba and Scar fight, and the exhilaration at Simba finally climbing up Pride Rock to take his place…it was a roller-coaster that a tiny little me did not see coming.
I will never forget how I ran up to my aunt after the movie ended and demanded some serious answers from her, especially as to how could a lion kill his own brother? I will never forget her face when I asked her “Will you do this to me too, auntie?”
My 29-year-old friend from college, Shruti Menon, echoed the same sentiments, “Mufasa's death was so unpredictable and heartbreaking especially when you're watching as a kid. It really shook me as a child and still does, to be honest. But when you grow older, you do realise there's so much strength and beauty to the story, to remember who you are and where you come from. After all, it's the circle of life.”
4. The Beautiful Soundtrack
I am pretty sure this is going to be a sing-a-long movie, as 90 per cent of the people in the hall will be comprised of adults, who already know all the songs from the movie by-heart!
I'll be lying if I tell you that I'm not going to brush up on my lyrics before I catch the movie. “Oh, I just can't wait to be kiiiiiiiiiiiiing”.
5. Timon And Pumba
They were, still are, and always will be my favourite set of friends/sidekicks in a Disney movie (Mushu from 'Mulan' coming in second). I mean, come on! They are basically the life of the movie and I have never seen anything like them till date in a film.
From finding a half-dead Simba as a cub, to raising him and teaching him to find the joys of life, to ultimately watching him transform from their goofy friend to the mighty King of the Jungle, Timon and Pumba are the epitome of true friendship and by God, I wanted a pet pig after watching the movie back then.
The new trailer that was dropped today has left nineties kid across the planet screaming. Baby Simba looks so freaking cute!
It is so satisfying in every way and each and every CGI animal looks like perfection.
Honestly, even if this movie had dropped when I was like 50 or something, my excitement levels would still have been the same. This movie is a representation of my glorious childhood, which I am proud to say that kids these days will never, ever get to experience, no matter how much they try.
It goes without saying that 'The Lion King' is going to be a success as there is no chance of failure anywhere. The cast itself is nothing short of iconic and has my Goddess BEYONCE in it as Nala!
So, all I can do now is mentally prepare myself for next year, so that I still have my sanity intact by the end of the movie, and am not left a crying, quivering, destroyed mess of a woman!

October is going to be one of the most happening months for mobile enthusiasts because we're expecting many new top-tier phones to launch. A couple of years back, March used to be filled to the brim with launches at MWC Barcelona and all the big names tried to take down one another.
Samsung's S-series has established itself as a leader and all OEMs are now focusing on improving their product and launching it at the end of the year. This way, they have an edge in analysing the market trend as well as the following holiday season helps in boosting sales. This year, the hype has been more about price sensitive phones like the POCO F1, Mi A2, Vivo X21, and the Nokia 7 Plus.
Now, we are looking forward to seeing the flagship phones from makers like Google, OnePlus, LG, Nokia, and Razer.
1. Google Pixel 3:
Since you guys keep asking... https://t.co/DpRqzsyRem">pic.twitter.com/DpRqzsyRem
— Evan Blass (@evleaks) https://twitter.com/evleaks/status/1043276447094333441?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">September 21, 2018
There aren't too many secrets left to share about Google's upcoming Pixel 3 and Pixel 3 XL phones. Both devices have been leaked left and right, so we know the smaller Pixel 3 will have a notch-less screen, while the larger Pixel 3 XL will have a notch on top.
The Pixel 3 is expected to have a single rear camera, while the front has a dual camera setup. The Pixel 3 XL will also have a similar setup and the duo will be powered by a Snapdragon 845 SoC, 4GB RAM, and 128GB storage. Google has started teasing or trolling, depends on your perspective, and things will go official on October 9.
2. OnePlus 6T:
(c) Onleaks
Continuing the same launch timeline, OnePlus has confirmed it will be launching the 6T by the third week of October. While the 'T' series phones from the company are supposed to have minor upgrades over the May flagship, rumours, and reports suggest OnePlus has some interesting new things coming up.
This includes a much smaller water droplet style notch on the top, an in-display fingerprint scanner, and maybe, a triple camera setup on the back.
These additions are sure to offend quite a lot of OnePlus 6 buyers, not just because a new and better flagship has been launched within 6 months, but because they are also removing the 3.5mm headphone jack. Yes, OnePlus intends to go the Apple way.
3. The Mystery 4X Samsung:
(c) Samsung
Honestly, this is the phone I'm personally most excited about. The core reason being, Samsung has managed to keep the lid on, and everything we've heard about it so far is extremely unreliable. This is how phone launches are actually supposed to be, exciting, not leaked multiple times again and again.
As far as the details are concerned, we are guessing it'll have a 4-camera setup on the rear. A much bigger guess can be a foldable phone, but that's a very big if. Samsung will be making everything official on October 11.
4. Razer Phone 2:
(c) Twitter
Razer too has scheduled a launch, nicely fitting between Google and Samsung. We know the new phone will be focused on gaming, (obviously!) and will also have a dual camera setup on the rear. Leaked renders of the phone suggest it will have sharp edges and slim bezels too.
The Razer logo on the back will be glowing, and the phone will have a 6-inch AMOLED display with a refresh rate of 120Hz. We are also pretty sure the phone will be powered by a Snapdragon 845 SoC and will be backed by a 4500mAh battery. The phone will be launched on October 10.
5. Huawei Mate 20:
Twitter / @rquandt
The Mate series is typically the larger version of Huawei's flagship smartphone ranges, and this year's Mate 20 will feature the new Kirin 980 platform and make its debut on 16 October at an event in London. The Mate 20 series will continue with the premium design found on the Mate 10 and Mate 10 Pro, though it is likely to adopt waterproofing and the notch design of the P20 and P20 Pro.

August saw a list of some small humble releases as far as Bollywood was concerned but September has some strong offerings in store for movie buffs. Here are four major releases that have got us all excited for September:
1. Sui Dhaga (28th September)
Anushka Sharma and Varun Dhawan have come together in an avatar which you have never seen before. The story follows the simple dreams and aspirations of a small town man who is unemployed and fights all odds to build his own garment business.
2. Paltan (7th September)
J.P Dutta fans know exactly what it means to watch a movie helmed by him. 'Paltan' talks about the Nathu La military clashes that took place in 1967 at the Sikkim border and also deals with the Indo-China relations.
3. Manmarziyan (14th September)
Anurag Kashyap is here with a movie based on romance with Taapsee Pannu, Vicky Kaushal and Abhishek Bachchan in the lead roles. The entire package looks brilliant and we are sold on the trailer.
4. Batti Gul Meter Chalu (21st September)
This movie stars Shahid Kapoor and Shrradha Kapoor in the leads and will talk about the problem surrounding electricity theft in rural India, which is a menace.
Time to make some movie plans now?
